I wanna shoot a demo/pilot thing for a sitcom I wrote. I was told I should get an entertainment attorney. What's that and why do I need it?

An entertainment attorney is an attorney who specializes in entertainment law. Usually they work in either contracts or litigation.

Entertainment law covers an area of law which involves media of all types (TV, film, music, publishing, advertising, Internet & news media, etc.), and stretches over various legal fields, including but not limited to corporate, finance, intellectual property, publicity and privacy, and first amendmen

I'm guessing the person told you that you need an entertainment attorney to write up contracts for the people you will employ to work on your demo/pilot thing. If you're in a big city, like LA, a good entertainment attorney will cost you a minimum of $200 an hour, the best go for much more.
